As you progross in the world of Monster Hunter, you will have to face this buddy. Lavasioth is badass. A giant carp swimming in a sea of lava. There isn’t much of a single-player strategy here. Lavasioth might be huge, but he certainly moves fast. You will soon notice that many of his attacks and patterns ressemble the ones of Plesioth. Obviously you can pretty much use the same attacking-patterns here that you would usually apply to a Plesioth. It’s essential to not be hasty here. Bow users will not have to deal with the troublesome tailwhip, however it becomes even more essential to keep at distance and predict Lavsioths moves.

The safest place in a fight against Lavasioth is right under his belly. Go for his legs and deal as much damage as possible. Be careful to evade his tailwhips though. Once he has hit you, things tend to get really ugly. Apart from that there really isn’t much of strategy. Wait for the right moment, and then strike with everything you got.
